Perspective view of topography developed in a physical model of a salt-bearing basin. Salt dia- pirs form highs within the basin (black, green and red colors) and are surrounded by withdrawal basins (minibasins; dark blue to purple). Some of the rising diapirs form interconnected networks of salt-cored highs. Image by Tim Dooley, Applied Geodynamics Laboratory.
